[@tiphanispaulding-frantz5524]

I personally would do the separate bassinets. The reason why I would go that route is because if you get the twin one and one of the babies start crying they might wake the other baby up. I feel the two bassinets would be better for you and Justin's sanity lol

[@mindymoe0715]

Tiphani Spaulding-Frantz yes. This is exactly what we went through

[@tinselbmerryweather]

And you wouldn’t want them to “mess” on each other. Throw up or poop shouldn’t be shared

[@morganhunter3994]

Melinda Watson they also might be able to soothe each other and it would probably reduce the risk of sids having them close

[@chickin1235]

I have twins and they told me separate for sure because one can turn and smother the other!! Scary but I guess true! And important to know!!

[@kggroom]

!!

[@peytonmckay5020]

Go ahead and get clothes that aren’t white/gray! As long as they don’t say anything like “daddy’s girl” or “big boy” etc., all colors are gender neutral!!!! A baby girl can wear a dinosaur onesie and a baby boy can wear a ladybug onesie!

[@daniellegoodman2124]

LOL so true I told my husband if we ever had a boy I'm putting him in some of my daughter's favorite clothes I have from her thankfully all he said was okay sounds good

[@_mommy2019]

Uh no that’s just weird

[@Lauchis]

This x1000000! All colours are gender neutral!

[@kayleashelbourne2135]

Peyton McKay not everyone feels that way though and I’m sure she would’ve thought of that already if she shared this ideaology.

[@ruthm9383]

Totally agree! I’m expecting my first in June. We don’t know the gender and already have all clothes sorted.. Lots of white, Grey, blue, navy- but plenty of pink and red and yellow too!

[@tayloraf214]

I just wanted to mention that yellow is a gender neutral color!!! I love yellow for nurseries, as it is such a happy color and babies bring so much joy. 😊

[@laurak4961]

Same with brown and green and orange and even blue and salmon... but I found it’s not the colors that. Are the issue it’s the styles that are usually very girly or boyish like frills and bows or ties and trucks etc

[@thewhiteshellmermaid9328]

Taylor Af in my mind all colors are gender neutral except for pink and purple. I definitely would not do grey for a nursery. It's such drab color. But that's my opinion. Yellow is a good idea!

[@tayloraf214]

I think you can make anything work for either gender, depending on the other things you dress with it! I had a family member who had 4 boys and had a whoopsie pregnancy, of course it was a girl. She was thrilled, but she made some of the boy’s hand me downs work for the girl as well, like pairing a Dino onsie under an overall dress, or using some of their little pants with girlier tops. She made it work so she didn’t have to buy a completely new wardrobe. If you find a piece of baby clothing you love, usually you can find a way to make it work!

[@sweetcanada17]

Do not use yellow for babies. It’s such an irritating colour. This has even been scientifically proven. Something I learned in my interior decorating course. Avoid yellow, yellow based colours, white, and off white colours (including beiges), unless you want a colicky baby. Rooms and houses housing kids younger than 6 years old should avoid decorating in these colours or even dressing them in these colours.

[@moriahkats57]

@@sweetcanada17 how does the color yellow make babies colicky? The color has nothing to do with that

[@karenalexander3720]

As a mother of two sets of twins , the double bassinet is the best option. If for some reason they need their own space, you can pull out Emma’s old one! Good Luck

[@michelledesjadon1476]

I 3rd it..lol

[@mackenziekilgore2664]

All twins are different. I am a twin and we would scream until my parents put us together in the same one.

[@tamaraallen1326]

Our twins weight was 2.5 and 3.4 so we made sure that we had some preemie cloths and diapers. I found that two bassinet's worked best. This way one twin could sleep while I was feeding the other. A three seater stroller was a life saver at the time as I had a toddler (1 1/2 Year old ). Hope this is helpful. Blessings💝🎍

[@AA28374]

If you do end up getting bath toys make sure they are solid, or they have holes so the water can drain. They grow mold inside very easy!

[@tahliaharrington4598]

abbey harris Hot glue the holes up then no water can get in! I’ve done it with all my sons bath toys

[@alexisreyes4179]

That’s true tho

[@chickin1235]

Yes!! They're so gross!!

[@kggroom]

Super smart

[@AdventuresWithNickle]

THIS! I didn’t know this (should have, but didn’t think about it), and had to throw away so many because they got gross so quickly!

[@meganvanderwal5550]

Justin: I can try but idk how well it’ll work😂😂 talking about nursing twins😂

[@whitneylewis7878]

You might want to consider getting preemie sleepers since they will be on the little side

[@krystalanderson7160]

Not sure if you do this with Emma’s “baby on board” magnet / suction but, on the inside list emergency contacts in sharpie and on both sides off all car seats list or even make labels with each kids name, DOB and any known allergies or conditions! Lord forbid, but I case of an emergency first responders can provide the best care! My dad a paramedic of 25 years has done this for as long as I can remember on all car seats!

[@emilyedgar1610]

Krystal Anderson I’m a Paramedic and I have never heard of this, but now I’m going to tell everybody to do this because it’s genius!! Thank you.

[@nancygerger5015]

Krystal Anderson a lot of birthing centers have labels to put on car seats with emergency numbers and baby information that may be needed for their care.

[@cherilynclements3188]

Brad and Rach on KZbin are a great source for "what you need for twins!!"

[@angecelimonegro8206]

I follow them 2

[@rachelbirchmore7681]

I second that

[@boothlovesbones1]

Being an identical twin, I’d say you should put them together in one. Twins naturally comfort each other because they were together in the womb (#wombmates) and being close to each other helps them feel safe. Also will help to foster a tight bond between them ☺️

[@Foo281]

Elissa B my identical girls are the opposite 😂😂 after 6 months together we put them in seperate cots and they sleep better

[@jennagilmore6986]

Twin mamma here and when my boys were new born they shared a full crib in our room for the first 6 months, they slept side by side until they went into there own room!

[@RachelleandJustin]

I like the idea of them being closer!

[@jennagilmore6986]

It’s helped when they were closer together it soothed them

[@daniellegoodman2124]

Oh I like that idea so much better than the twin bassinet that way they can be able to feel each other and be able to have touch contact

[@crowebar8614]

Jenna Gilmore And you need another crib for later anyway.

[@peachesandqueen7640]

@@RachelleandJustin get a Costco membership for diapers ..we saved a ton of money on our son on diapers

[@Lscherer4]

I swear I heard Emma say "c'mon daddy" when she was upset and they were leaving the store. If so, her speech is improving like crazy!!!

[@imclerkship5015]

I had twin boys 2 years ago. The only “twin” specific item we could not have lived without was a dedicated twin feeding/nursing pillow. I used the My Breastfriend Twin pillow, and it was BY FAR the best purchase for them. I took it with me to hospital and used it immediately. Within a couple of weeks, I was able to nurse them without anyone helping me because of that pillow. We did supplement a little at first until I caught up to feeding 2, but after that, I used that pillow to nurse for a year plus some. The only drawback is that you have to feed sitting upright, legs crossed, on a bed with a support pillow under the back clasp, but it gets normal

[@aliciabarkell1672]

You guys should buy a gift card every once in a while! That way once you know what the babies genders are you have the gift cards to go and get them some cute little clothes and other items without worrying about spending too much!

[@BellaBella284]

Alicia Hardy love this idea!

[@mcrchickenluvr]

Alicia Hardy ask for them at a baby shower. That’s what my niece did when she was pregnant with her twins. She had her guests bring either a pack of onesies, blankets, bottles or diapers and wipes with a gift card. We’ve got a huge family so of course not all of them got the memo. But most did. And it was a MASSIVE help.

[@ashebw]

Don't forget preemie diapers just in case. A lot of times....obviously not every time...but often times twins use preemie diapers first

[@longdistancebesties8856]

Been watching you guys for 2 and a half years and I’m so proud of you,now you have a child about to have two more,bought a house and so much more.Im happy to be here and keep on sharing this journey with you 😊

[@chelsiashart3855]

I never once tandem nursed my twins except in the hospital it is just way easier to do everything one at a time.

[@lishialindh25]

Tandem nursing was great with mine, i loved being able to feed them at the same time

[@amyf4080]

chelsi and joey I tandem nursed my girls all the time!

[@stfucrazykids]

My must haves for my twin girls were at least one bouncer (to keep one while I fed the other), swaddles, burp clothes, they lived in sleepers the first month or so, a bottle warmer, and their pacifiers!

[@lydiagrace8116]

Emma’s “meow” gives me baby fever.

[@realridgegirl9451]

I would get the twin bassinet so that way they're still together.

[@himorgie]

I’ve never had kids but I am a twin myself & the best thing I could recommend is to keep them together as much as possible! the twin bond is so amazing & i love being so close to my sister!

[@shanirae5276]

A little tip about twins; they love to be together. They’ve never been away from each other so sometimes it can be stressful on them to be away from each other. I’d get the divided bassinet

[@mamabess93]

BTW, 9 times out of 10 they won't be sleeping at the same time so a bassinet for each is probably best and if the happen to be on monitors for being early, they will have to have their own. The monitors from the hospital can pick up the breathing of both if they're together, so you'll want to have separate readings. Also 2 vibrating bouncers. They'll be extra hands when Emma needs you. 💕

[@Sara-gc2zy]

Yess very good advice

[@lzeliff1]

I suggest to get a few packages of Premie diapers and preemie outfits because my set a twins weighed 5lb 3oz and 4lbs and 13oz and I delivered them at 36 weeks

[@Countrykickboxer01]

Lauren Lynch my daughters twins were 7.4 and 6.1 and she delivered at 38 weeks!

[@lzeliff1]

Camille Itri-Hixson Three weeks before I had the twins I went into preterm labor at 32 weeks and was hospitalized till I was 35 weeks and was able to be home for a week until I went into labor

[@Foo281]

Camille Itri-Hixson were they fraternal? I have identicals and they wouldn’t let me deliver beyond 37 weeks

[@iris1196]

I just love Emma's talking! Can't understand a word but it's adorable :)

[@chelsiashart3855]

Stock up on some premie clothes my twins were in them for about a month and a half and premie diapers

[@jessicav918]

chelsi and joey my son was 6 lbs and newborn was too big for him lol. I’m glad I got some premie onesies.

[@rosalyngummer6587]

chelsi and joey then again Rachelle’s babies are measuring bigger than average singletons and Emma was also a big baby

[@leslivallejo6384]

Samee my 5.5 and 6.6 lb babies used them for a month as well

[@jessicav918]

Rosalyn Gummer I think they’re bigger because she’s further along. There’s no way she’s going to carry two babies 8+lbs as twins lolol. They will be small like most twins are. Premie fit my 6 lb son for the first month of his life.

[@brittanynorris2085]

I didn’t move my son till he was 2 1/2 and moved him right into a full and did great! Use your guest bed for Emma!

[@laurelflint3153]

I did the same thing! It worked great too, when a little one needed, Mommy or Daddy to lay down with them.

[@malloryezzo1256]

Agree! Then if you have guests, they can stay in her room!

[@MamaBreeann]

We did the same thing! My two year old loves her big bed.

[@CaliAnimalLover]

This is a great idea! It’s such a nice mattress too. Just put it up against the wall and put up one of those bed gates. So she can’t fall out. And really, if one of you needs to lay down with a sick baby, or one that can’t settle to sleep, there will be a place available. And her room is big enough, and really she doesn’t play in there, because she has her play area in the front.

[@AngryHalfBlkHottie]

I would think it would be easier to set up the nursery before because then its already done, rather than trying to do it when you have your hands full with the twins and Emma.

[@georgeneufeld3364]

Can't do anything worst then setting up your nursery when u already have the baby . I talk about experience

[@MommaYeager1221]

Tamara Gibbons I have 3 kids all singletons and can’t imagine not having a room set up. Although, my kids are all grown, but we never roomed them with us. We always had a monitor and they slept in their cribs from the start. I think with twins and double everything, you would need dresser and closet space ready to go. So much has changed since I had newborns.

[@mirandabruning3953]

I agree with Tammara in setting up the nursery. This should be their safe happy place. If you do not have then know the room, light sounds etc they will have to transition again at 5 months. That for mom and dad is not a happy place. It seriously is one of the big reasons so many toddlers won't sleep in their own bed because they dont feel safe their from the beginning. This also is better for moms as their sleep is better with not hearing every sound.

[@Foo281]

My mum and partner set up the room for me as a surprise while I was still in hospital with my twins. Made me cry when I got home. Such a lovely surprise 😍

[@joanmilano5302]

It would be best to at least paint it and have the cribs set up - you can keep the bed in there for guests for awhile. I think just turning 2 is a little early for a toddler bed - 3 is the perfect age.

[@Sara-gc2zy]

It's so exciting seeing you start to buy stuff and get ready for the babies!!! I totally understand the not doing the room yet, but don't you think it will be way more stressful and harder painting and carpeting and all that once the twins are here?

[@taliadoninger]

I loved the end of the video of Rachelle just sitting and talking to the camera. It’s a lot more chill and personal

[@elizabethblanch5871]

Twins sleep better together. We have had 6 sets in our family and my Aunt & cousins would keep them together, when you spend that much time together growing it stands to reason they would feel safer together.

Gray and light green are good neutral colors!

I think the twin bassinet because they are so use to being with each other in the womb I think it will help them for more secure when they’re born to still have that connection.

[@rachelgoldmann7908]

Twins tend to be much more comforted when they are close to each other so I would recommend the twin bassinet! My twin niece and nephew slept in the same crib until they started rolling over.

[@brooke2843]

i would say do the room while you can 😬 and so you have more time to get the things you want for it and decorate it how you want

[@Sara-gc2zy]

I agree, sounds really stressful to do with twins and Emma running around

[@elaines2813]

I nursed my twin boys for 17 months (tandem nursing saved my sanity) and the My Brest Friend Deluxe Nursing pillow was an absolute MUST! Worth every penny!! And it was also a huge sanity saver for them to be in their own baby swings when I had my two year old boy to entertain, too.

[@JustAnotherLondoner]

I really liked how you approached Emma and calmly asked her what's wrong when she started screaming in the store. You're such a good mum! So patient and able to keep your cool when the baby is getting stressed, and showing her she can just tell you what she wants is so important. I love seeing good parenting lol

[@idk-gk6xx]

i would get the twin bassinet because that way the twins can be closer to eachother, they would feel comfortable next to eachother.

[@ryanblickley8543]

You could always paint 3 of the walls in the twins bedroom a light gray and then when they’re born you could make an accent wall by their cribs either a light pink or blue if they’re two of each or just finish it with the gray if they’re one of each! Then it won’t be such a task when they’re born!!

[@jennifermcgraw3490]

Cute idea!

[@saradesrochers9588]

I feel that the twins would do better in the twin bassinet. They have been together comforting each other, and co existing from the beginning if their life. They put twins together in the NICU (if they are super early) to help them thrive. Research it if you like. But I think it would be a huge benefit to keep them together. ☺️

[@j4068]

I think they should sleep together💜💙Not only will there bond be super close but there sleeping patterns will be the same and you can get them on same feeding an sleeping patterns. Your new shirt was so cute!🌟 Blessings to you,Justin,Emma an the twins! 😇

[@mickiesconcertarchive]

Emma is noticeably talking WAY more! I haven’t watched in a while, so I’m happily surprised. It’s so wonderful to see.

[@johnnabridges4874]

I would put the twins together in the twin bassinet. Studies show that twins, or any multiples, do better when they're together. Also, you might want to consider pumping one side while nursing on the other. Tandem nursing can be difficult, but it can be done. If Justin is going to help with feedings, though, it would be great to have your milk.

[@tamathecat95]

Congratulations on the twins. I saw you buying the bundle pack for bottles. The best tip I ever got that saved me soooo much money with my first, because he hated bottles, was to buy a single bottle. Try the single bottle before opening the big multi pack. If baby doesn’t like the bottle then return the bigger pack and try a new bottle. Best of luck and sending love and prayers to you and your family.

[@lzeliff1]

Also get two bassinets and can use one for a while and when they get bigger then each will have their own and place one on each side of bed. Then we would alternate nights with each baby. What I mean by this is the baby by me when he would wake up I would feed him while my husband would sleep and if the one near my husband wake he would feed while I sleep.

[@annevanlienden8588]

I would take the twin one. They have spent 8 months together already by the time they are born, so they are used to be close to each other. And this way they will both be in your reach.

The benefit to setting up a nursery while you're still pregnant is because you (may) have more energy and time to put into it versus after when baby(ies) are born.

[@kelseytout9385]

I get that, but they also would still have Emma's bassinet if they did need to separate. Some twins settle better together, others don't

[@VintageBarbi]

Exciting getting things ready for the twins. I love the twin bassinet.

[@makaylasykes533]

My Aunt has twins. They are 3 months old. What she does for feeding is separate them feed one then when that one is done feed the other. They get a little fussy but when doing it that way its easier on you for when Justin isnt home or visa versa. Then for bath time give one a bath then the other. Setting their routine to be one after the other keeps them on a schedule that works for the parents so you arent trying to do both of them at the same time. It works so good and honestly takes a lot of the stress away.

IMO, colors are for everyone. My little boy is 2 and loves the animated Lady & The Tramp...the baby in the movie is dressed in white and pink, and he is a boy. His nursery is blue, pink, white, and yellow. We have so gone overboard with assigning genders to colors.

[@Danielle-lf6sn]

With twins, you might find that as newborns they’ll be small enough to share a normal sized bassinet and might prefer to share one so they are still next to each other :) I have friends who have had twins and they’ve shared until they were big enough to have to use separate ones

[@quadenarhodes4859]

I’m excited I can’t wait till the babies are born. You could on the wall where the cribs are going measure the wall n find the center and paint one wall baby pink if one is a girl and the other if a boy a baby blue with their names up there.

[@TheKayes81]

[@vg7735]

Yes. These stereotypes are so silly.

[@CaliAnimalLover]

With the gray changing/weighing table get the covers that match whatever you do with the nursery. That way it’ll be protected from the surprise poo or pee while changing them. And don’t worry about nursing the twins. You’ll have to keep a chart of who nursed first and which side. They’ll give you some good information at the hospital before you head home and they usually come to your home a few days after you give birth, just to check out how you’re doing. And you’ve nursed before. It’s scary when the baby is crying and you don’t know if they’ve gotten enough to eat or not. But the changing pad can help. Just weigh them before and after a feeding. I can’t wait to see what you have!! Going to be exciting times! Take care!

[@sssstephschroeder]

I have 6 year old twins, they've always slept separately and that's always been my preference. Generally, they dont disturb each other when they cry, though they obviously also feed off of each others moods occasionally. In the end, it's up to you guys, you know your babies better than anyone else! Congratulations and good luck!

[@THSguardgurl]

We bought a second one and we have one on each side! It’s great! And dock a tots are great but the twin Z pillow is a MUST for twins! My girls are 5 months old (3 months adjusted) and formula fed and I wear the pillow and feed them on it still!

CRIB TIP: I got mini cribs for my twins (convertible ones that went into a toddler bed and then a twin size bed)...was a great space saver and was big enough for them until they were ready for a toddler bed. :)

[@trishawaters9]

I would definitely do separate bassinets. We loved having them on each side of the bed. Also made it easier when traveling. One of our girls slept a lot better than the other and It wouldn't have worked having them together. Plus it will also be easier to resale, re use, or store than a twin one which is something to keep in mind since twins are so expensive.

[@amelia464]

Definitely go ahead with colors. Pastels of any color are pretty safe. Plus, if the twins are identical you might not want them in exactly identical everything to limit confusion

[@sweetcanada17]

Do not use yellow for babies. It’s such an irritating colour. This has even been scientifically proven. Something I learned in my interior decorating course. Avoid yellow, yellow based colours, white, and off white colours (including beiges), unless you want a colicky baby.

[@carlyvogel3181]

As a twin mama and a Halo bassinet user (with my singleton), I would get a separate one solely for the purpose of resale! I was able to sell our single Halo for over half of what they cost new on Marketplace. I doubt I would’ve been able to sell a twin bassinet as easily. We actually used two cosleepers in the top of a pack n play next to my side of the bed for the first few months with the twins. It was a much cheaper option for us and a huge space saver. But if you still want to go with Halo, you may even be able to fit two bassinets next to your side of the bed!

I can’t wait to see you all with 3 babies!!!😍😍😍 going to be so much fun!!!👶🏼👶🏼👶🏼

You know we probably won’t see the twins and Emma nearly as much as we see Emma now. They will have their hands full with 3 little ones - no time for videos!

Robin McCune I think Rachelle will do whatever she puts her mind to! And whatever her activeness on KZbin is I will support it😉

I have twin boys make sure to have some preemie diapers & preemie clothes. My boys were 5.2 & 5.9 & were in preemies for a good 2.5 months in clothes & diapers & for the bassinet to save money I would just get another halo bassinet that you already have! I never had the twin one but I just had a normal pack & play with the twin bassinet on top

As a mum of twins i always used a double bassinet as they would like to be together, they settled better, when they went in their cots in their room they were outwards and pushed together and they slept so well through the night because they used to look for each other xx

[@salinas2290]

We did one bassinet as they didnt want to b separate... they still love sleeping together... another thing i would say maybe get the twin z pillow for nursing

Good call on the bathtub. We have twins and we only bathed one at a time when they were tiny. We bathed them together once they could sit up by themselves and bought these little bath rings from Amazon.

I think the whole shared bassinet thing is personal preference. I know my sister and I (fraternal girl twins) shared a bassinet/crib from the time we were born. At the hospital the only way we would stop crying was if we were together. ❤️ being a twin is the best! So excited for y’all!

You can get a two seat thing that will help when they get abit older to have them layed together. Also for nursing I would say the c shaped pillow so you can lay them down and feed at the same time

two separate Bassinets for sure or...just put a full size crib in your room and put both babies in the crib. We did that and it worked great for about 4 months. They were small enough to have plenty of space and not wake each other up.

I had twin boys and used the twin size Arms Reach Co-Sleeper. I wish though I would have gone with two separate ones. They out grew it so fast so they didn’t end up staying in our room for as long as we hoped. You also want to get them used to sleeping apart for when they do move to separate cribs.

Yea I think you should get the two bassinets that’s going to be so cute. I’m looking forward on seeing how the nursery comes together

[@monicadelgado2857]

I am so excited for you guys :)
